Our Next Workshop Will Be With Artist​​
Veronica Sauer!
Thursday, April 2, 2026
10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Artist Bio
​
Veronica Sauer creates fine art rooted in abstract realism—bold, expressive work that resonates with collectors seeking striking, statement-making pieces. Working with acrylics, large brushes, and palette knives, she layers shadow, light, and emotion into every canvas. Her subjects span iconic portraits, pets and wildlife, and abstract landscapes, all unified by a signature style that is both elevated and deeply personal.
Exhibited in galleries, corporate spaces, and public venues, Veronica's work
complements contemporary interiors while offering lasting emotional and collectible value. She is based in Seattle.
​
Artist Statement
​
I believe color speaks directly to emotion—an instinctive language that stirs memory,movement, and meaning. My work blends abstraction and realism, layering unexpected color into familiar subjects to recast them with vitality and presence. Whether painting iconic figures, natural landscapes, or design-inspired forms, I seek to make the unseen seen—giving depth and dimension to what might otherwise be overlooked.
Collectors often tell me my art stays with them. One put it this way: "Her art drops into your soul and you can't stop hugging it with your brain." That's exactly the impact I aim to create.
